La vida da muchas vueltas

La vida da muchas vueltas
 

How can I say la vida da muhcas vueltas in English?
Life is unpredictable?????

Tour translation is good, but
A life full of twists and turns is close to Spanish, and it is used.

Thanks

Robin, you could also say, "¡las vueltas que da la vida!" = "how things change!" or "life's full of ups and downs!" :eek: :)

Gracias, JPablo

I am looking to learn, retain and use many common sayings and idioms.

So am I, Aprendo. Be sure to check out our IDIOMS section; it's a goldmine of them.

De nada, Aprendo...

Yes, the Idioms section has a lot, and also Robin makes a lot of questions related to idiomatic expressions.

I'd think that the best way to go about it, is to retain the idioms that you know very well in English, that are very similar in Spanish.

You know, like "the cobbler should stick to his last" in Spanish is something like "zapatero, a tus zapatos" (literally, "shoemaker [cobbler], to your shoes") Which actually means the "same", i.e., stick to what you know
let the cobbler stick to his last...

The other thing, of course is to USE-USE-and-USE these idioms, and then use them some more...

My mother used to have many sayings, so probably I got carried away following her trend... (De tal palo, tal astilla...)

¡Saludos cordiales! :)
